The Story of Turram Khan Turrebaz Khan is a name the history books rarely acknowledge. Nothing is known about the hero of the little known struggle Hyderabad had put up against the British during the Sepoy Mutiny of 1857. History remembers him only as an ordinary soldier from Begum Bazar who mobilised 6,000-odd people to attack the British Residency. Nothing about his family background, his life before the uprising, his personality is known; we don’t even have a sketch or portrait. It seems like the legend of Turrebaz Khan took birth with the revolt of 1857 and died with it. Little is known about him for sure, but his story needs to be retold. For, he was the man who had put Hyderabad on the map of the country’s First War of Independence. How the sepoy mutiny reached Hyderabad The uprising of 1857 in Hyderabad, led by Turrebaz Khan and Maulvi Allauddin, was essentially to free Jamedar Cheeda Khan, who was held as a prisoner inside the Residency. Though high-school history books have omitted the story, there was a significant impact of the revolt of 1857 on Hyderabad too. As the news of the revolt, which started in Meerut reached Hyderabad, posters appeared on walls of mosques, churches and in public squares, urging the Nizam and the people to rise up against the British. “But unfortunately Nizam Afzal Ud-daula and his minister, Salar Jung along with the Umraos and Sardars, adopted a pro-British stance. The history of Hyderabad could have been written differently had they been supportive of their people,” says Anuradha Reddy of INTACH. There were spells of anti-British rebellions in Hyderabad State even before 1857. With the Nizam signing the Treaty of Subsidiary Alliance with the East India Company in 1800, he fell into huge debts and the British wielded a lot of influence over him. The Indian sepoys in Nizam’s army and the Subsidiary Troops of East India Company revolted against the European officers. Among them was Jamedar Cheeda Khan who revolted against the British when Hyderabad Contingent’s 3rd Cavalry was ordered to march to Delhi at Buldhana. “They supposed it an attempt of the foreigners to overthrow the Mughal emperor,” says Mohammad Ali Baig, prominent theatre personality from Hyderabad, who brought to life Turrebaz Khan’s story on stage recently, with his play 1857: Turrebaz Khan which premiered at The Edinburgh Festival Fringe. “Cheeda Khan fled with 15 other sepoys to Hyderabad expecting support from the Nizam. But the moment he stepped into Hyderabad, he was arrested by Nizam’s minister Mir Turab Ali Khan and was handed over to the Resident,” Baig adds.
